Thursday 12 November
Christ Church Cambridge

Introduction

God deals personally with us by bringing us into relationship with himself through Christ. 

What will it mean for our lives and ministry to reflect the character of this personal God? How will we relate differently, pray differently and preach differently because we know that God has met us personally in Christ? Join us for a day conference with Ed Welch (Faculty member at CCEF) and Steve Midgley (Executive Director of Biblical Counselling UK).

The day will be particularly suitable for all those in church leadership teams (in various paid or unpaid roles – men and women).
